Abduction: The Test
Well, finally posted something else. This is an old, non-participating entry to the Animation Challenge circa May 2012. Yes, you read that right, this video is almost two years old. Better late than never I suppose.
The title is a play on words, referencing what might be happening within the "story" of the video, and also the fact that pretty much everything about this video was a first time test except for the raw stop motion part of it. This was the first time for pretty much everything else: non trivial lighting setups, extensive VFX, masking, sound, editing, and production pipeline.
Trivia:
-I finished the stop motion easily within the week allotted to the animation challenge.
-After starting VFX, I realized I was never going to finish in time so slowed down, intending to finish over the next week or so.
-It took me another three months (*sigh*).
-After rotting on my hard drive for over a year, I whipped up a title animation and credits in one evening and finished it all up.
-I'm finally posting it, yet another several months later.
-Maybe I'll start finalizing some of the other (many) tests I have done and uploading them.
-How many scenes have visual effects? (Ok, ok, not a fact, but hey...)
